Claims (4)

  1. Lehnenverstellanordnung für einen Fahrzeugsitz (14) der Art, die eine Rückenlehne (16) umfasst, die gelenkig mit einem Sitzkissen (18) verbunden und drehbar ist, wobei die Anordnung umfasst:
    einen verzahnten rotatorischen Lehnenverstellmechanismus (40), der dazu ausgebildet ist, inkrementelle Lehenwinkeländerungen um eine im Allgemeinen horizontale Achse (A) zu vorzunehmen, um eine relative Schwenkbewegung zwischen einer Rückenlehne (16) und einem Sitzkissen (18) zu gestatten,
    wobei der rotatorische Lehnenverstellmechanismus (40) einander gegenüberliegende innere und äußere Zahnräder (46, 42) umfasst, die relativ zueinander zur Drehung um die Achse (A) gelagert sind, wobei das äußere Zahnrad eine Innenverzahnung (44) umfasst, die entlang des Umfangs um die erste Achse (A) angeordnet ist, und wobei das innere Zahnrad (46) mindestens ein Zahneingriffselement (48) umfasst, das selektiv in und außer Eingriff mit der Innenverzahnung (44) bewegbar ist, um eine relative Drehung zwischen dem inneren und dem äußeren Zahnrad (46, 42) zu arretieren, wenn es mit der Innenverzahnung (44) in Eingriff ist;
    eine Grundplatte (60), die zur festen Verbindung mit dem Sitzkissen (18) ausgebildet ist, und eine Deckplatte (70), die zur festen Verbindung mit der Rückenlehne (16) ausgebildet ist, wobei die Grundplatte (60) fest mit dem inneren Zahnrad (46) verbunden ist und die Deckplatte (70) fest mit dem äußeren Zahnrad (42) des Verstellmechanismus (40) verbunden ist, um relative bogenförmigen Verschiebung um die erste Achse (A) zu bewirken;
    ein Halteelement (50), das an dem äußeren Zahnrad (42) befestigt ist; und wobei das Halteelement (50) dazu ausgebildet ist, das innere Zahnrad (46) lateral in Bezug auf das äußere Zahnrad (42) zu halten, wobei sich das Halteelement (50) benachbart zu einer ersten Fläche des inneren Zahnrads (46) erstreckt, wobei sich die erste Fläche des inneren Zahnrads (46) über 360 Grad erstreckt und das Halteelement (50) das innere Zahnrad (46) im Wesentlichen um die erste Fläche herum hält, wobei das Halteelement (50) kreisförmig ausgebildet ist und einen inneren Flansch (52) und einen äußeren Flansch (54) aufweist, wobei der innere Flansch (52) so ausgebildet ist, dass er einen Innendurchmesser aufweist, der kleiner ist als ein Außendurchmesser des inneren Zahnrads (46), um eine Überlappungsfläche des inneren Flansches (52) mit dem inneren Zahnrad (46) bereitzustellen,
    wobei sich diese Überlappungsfläche entlang des Umfangs um das innere Zahnrad (46) erstreckt, um eine 360-Grad-Lateralabstützung für das innere Zahnrad (46) bereitzustellen, wobei der äußere Flansch (54) zur Paarung mit dem äußeren Zahnrad (42) ausgebildet ist und wobei der äußere Flansch (54) des Halteelements (50) ferner mindestens eine Rast (56) zur Wechselwirkung mit Maximaldrehanschlägen (62) der Grundplatte (60) umfasst, so dass für den Fall, dass eine Drehung des Sitzkissens (18) relativ zur Rückenlehne (16) eine vorbestimmte Grenze überschreitet, die Rast (56) auf den Drehanschlägen (62) der Grundplatte (60) aufsetzt, um zum Stoppen einer solchen Drehung beizutragen.
  2. Anordnung nach Anspruch 1, wobei das äußere Zahnrad (42) an der Deckplatte (70) montiert ist.
  3. Anordnung nach Anspruch 2, wobei das äußere Zahnrad (42) ein Profil für einen formschlüssigen Eingriff mit einem entsprechenden Profil an der Deckplatte (70) umfasst.
  4. Anordnung nach Anspruch 1, wobei das Halteelement (50) an dem äußeren Zahnrad (42) und der Deckplatte (70) montiert ist.
